1: The threat and very real possibility of dying from Typhoid fever!

2. :lol: Having to wake up at 4am and go to work at the leather tannery for 20 hours every day! :rolleyes:

3. Having to live through TWO Franco-Dahomean wars, like wtf that poo poo was crazy nvr forget :france:

4: Getting your whole crew together and playing stick & hoop in the streets that doubled as open sewers.

5: Jamming out to sounds of the italian immigrant organ grinder and throwing rocks at his dancing monkey.

6. Finding out your dad died in the Lattimer Mine Massacre so now you've got to go out and work the anthracite mines to support your famil.

7. You totally got to experience the unbridled thrill of learning of the discovery of helium, argon, radioactivity, x-rays, neon, krypton, AND MOTHERFUCKING XENON BITCH.

8. You got to read the first Sherlock Holmes story in Strand Magazine before it was a "thing".

9. Having to wait in line for 4 hours just to watch 15 seconds on the Kinetoscope of a naked man jogging in place.

10: Only having a life expectancy of 45!

Sure sucked to be an 80s kid though! Victoria Hall Disaster

quote:

The Victoria Hall disaster, in which 183 children died, occurred in Sunderland, Great Britain on 16 June 1883 at the Victoria Hall, which was a large concert hall on Toward Road facing onto Mowbray Park...


...At the end of the show an announcement was made that children with certain numbered tickets would be presented with a prize upon exit. At the same time entertainers began distributing gifts from the stage to the children in the stalls. Worried about missing out on the treats, many of the estimated 1,100 children in the gallery stampeded toward the staircase leading downstairs.[3] At the bottom of the staircase, the door had been opened inward and bolted in such a way as to leave a gap only wide enough for one child to pass at a time. It is believed this was to ensure orderly checking of tickets.[4] With few accompanying adults to maintain order, the children surged down the stairs toward the door. Those at the front became trapped, and were crushed to death by the weight of the crowd behind them.[2]

Watching Clint Eastwood knock that poo poo-eatin' Mad Dog Tannen out.

It's a shame that Mr. Eastwood died, though, as Tannen's bastard kids look like they're going to turn out to be the same sort of assholes in need of a thrashing.
